LOS ANGELES - Sept. 4, 2024 - Greenberg Traurig, LLP Shareholder Mathew S. Rosengart was recognized on the Daily Journal's "Top 100 Lawyers" list for the third time. The accolade is an annual roundup of the best lawyers in California, according to the publication.
Rosengart, a former Justice Department trial attorney based in the firm's Los Angeles office, was named 2024's Entertainment Litigator of the Year by Benchmark Litigation, which recognizes "the country's most distinguished litigators and their firms for their exemplary work," according to the publication.
